JESUS'DIFFICULT WORDS

ITS GLUMY LOOKIN HERE IN THE RIVERBOTTOM THIS MORNIN,BUT WE KNOW ITS STILL ONE OF GODS DAYS.THOUGH ITS GLUMY I CAN STILL SEE GODS HAND IN EVERYTHING THAT I SEE.NO MATTER WHAT THE DAY LOOKS LIKE, ITS STILL GODS DAY.NOW I WANA TRY TO BRIGHTEN YOUR DAY.I SEEN IN A MAGAZINE THERE WAS A COMPANY ADVERTIZING A HUGGABLE,WASHABLE,AND TALKING "JESUS DOLL THAT RECITES "ACTUAL SCRIPTURE VERSES TO INTRODUCE CHILDREN OF ALL AGES TO THE WISDOM OF THE "BIBLE".ITS SAYINGS INCLUDE ,"I HAVE A EXCITING PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE",AND "YOUR LIFE MATTERS TO ME ".AND "WHEN YOUR SAD I WILL ALWAYS BE THERE WITH YOU ".WHO WOULDNT WANT TO FOLLOW A JESUS LIKE THAT ? JESUS DOES OFFER US AN AWSOME PLAN FOR OUR LIFE.BUT HE DOESNT SERVE AS A COSMIC GENIE OR CUDDLY DOLL TO MEET OUR EVERY WHIM.JOHN :6 GIVES US A PICTURE OF A JESUS WHO IS NOT SO CUDDLY-IN FACT,HES OFTEN OFFENSIVE.INSTEAD OF FULFILLING THE SELFISH DESIRES OF HIS FOLLOWERS,HE DISTURBED THERE EXPECTATIONS.HE OFFERED HIMSELF AS SPIRITUAL BREAD OF HEAVEN AND SAID,"WHOEVER EATS MY FLESH AND DRINKS MY BLOOD HAS ETERNAL LIFE "{JOHN 6 :54 }. THIS MESSAGE WAS OFFENSIVE AND DIFFICULT TO SOME.THE IMAGE OF EATING FLESH AND DRINKING BLOOD DID NOT GIVE HIS HEARERS"WARM FUZZIES "MANY STOPED FOLLOWING HIM{JOHN 6 : 66 HE WASNT THE CONQUERING MESSIAH-KING THEY HAD EXPECTED. SOMETIMES WE WANT A JESUS WHO MEETS OUR SELFISH NEEDS.BUT THE WONDEFUL LIFE HE OFFERS IS FOUND ONLY IN RADICAL OBEDIENCE TO HIS COMMANDS.THE WAY OF JESUS IS NOT ALWAYS EASY.LETS ASK JESUS TO SHOW US WHAT HIS WORDS MEAN,AND FOR COURAGE TO ACT ON HIS TRUTH...MANY OF HIS FOLLOWERS TOOK GODS WORDS IN THE WRONG WAY AND REALLY DIDNT UNDERSTAND WHAT HE WAS TRYIN TO TELL THEM.EVEN MY SELF TODAY AS I READ MY "BIBLE" I DONT UNDERSTAND SOME OF IT EVEN AFTER I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR A WHILE,, SO I HAVE TO ASK SOME ONE WITH MUCH WISDOM TO EXPLAIN IT TO ME AND EVEN THEN SOMETIME I DONT UNDERSTAND...ASK GOD INTO YOUR LIFE TODAY,HES WAITIN FOR YA TO ASK ...GOD LOVES YAS ,WE LOVE YAS ,HAVE A BLESSED DAY.YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM,,,RON......... HEY! HEY PREACHER WE HAVE PUT YOUR SON ON OUR PRAYER LIST,AND I WANA SAY A PRAYER FOR HIM RIGHT NOW,,DEAR LORD,YOU ARE THE GOD OF LOVE AND HEALING AND KNOW ALL THINGS WE COME TO YOU TODAY TO TOUCH HEY PREACHERS SON,YOU GIVE US ALL THINGS AND YOU PUT DOCTORS HERE ON EARTH TO HELP KEEP US WELL,GIVE THOSE DOCTORS THE KNOWLEDGE TO FIND OUT WHAT IS UP WITH HEY PREACHERS SON,AND WE KNOW THAT WITH YOU THE BEST PHYSICAIN OF THEM ALL,YOU WILL TOUCH HIM WITH YOUR HANDS AND TAKE CARE OF WHAT THE PROBLRM MIGHT BE .WE ASK THIS IN JESUS NAME ,,,AMEN AND STEVE PICKETT WHAT EVER IT WAS THAT YOUVE BEEN PRAYIN ABOUT WE ASK GOD TO ANSWER YOU AS HE ALWAYS DOES IN HIS TIME ...IF ANY OF YOU READERS ON HERE HAVE A PRAYER NEED LET US BRAD, ME HEYPREACHER AND ANYONE ELSE ON HERE KNOW THAT YA NEED PRAYER EVEN UNSPOKEN PRAYERS WE WILL PRAY FOR YOUS ,CAUSE WE ALL KNOW THERES MORE POWER IN THOSE PRAYERS WHEN ASKED IN NUMBERS!,,,JUST LOOK AROUND ,OPEN YOUR EYES ,TAKE A DEEP BREATH!

1 CORINTHIANS 13:1-3

“[The Greatest Gift] Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.”

AS THE LORD STATED MANY TIMES, "LOVE AS I HAVE LOVED YOU!"

GOD BLESS AND PLEASE ATTEND A CHURCH OF YOUR CHOICE THIS WEEKEND AND GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD ABOVE, FOR HE IS GOOD!

BROTHER IN CHRIST,

BRAD E. ISAACS

MOSES FOLLOWED JETHROS ADVISE TO SELECT,TRAIN,AND DELEGATE OTHERS TO SHARE THE WORK LOAD..WHOM HAS GOD PUT IN YOUR LIFE TO ADVISE YOU AS A "MINISTER MENTOR? WHEN WE HAVE QUESTIONS ,AND ARE UNCERTAIN ABOUT WHAT A VERSE IN THE BIBLE MIGHT SAY I ALWAYS ASK MY PASTOR CHARLIE HE IS A WISE MAN IF HE DOESNT QUIT KNOW THE ANSWER HE ,GETS ME THE RIGHT ONE BEFORE TELLIN ME .WE ALL NEED A MINISTER MENTOR I HAVE ANOTHER PERSON THAT I ASK TO SHOW ME THE ANSWER ALSO ,,,"GOD " WHEN I GO TO HIM ,HE ALWAYS HAS THAT ANSWER AND MIGHT SHOW ME IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS ...GOD LOVES YAS ,WE LOVE YAS ,HAVE A BLESSED DAY,YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,,,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM ,,,RON....HEY!

WELL GUYS, IT'S BEEN AN ODD DAY, TO SAY THE LEAST!!! MY SON GOT GREAT NEWS MONDAY-----"NO BIOPSY NECESSARY"!!! WE WERE ON CLOUD 9, SO TO SPEAK!!! THEN MONDAY NIGHT I GET HOME FROM WORK TO FIND MY MIDDLE CHILD IN BED WITH MOMMA!!! LONG STORY SHORT, PNEUMONIA!!! SHE FIGHTS THIS ALMOSY CONSTANTLY (SHE HAS A SWALLOWING DISORDER DUE TO DOWN SYNDROME AND LIQUID SOMETIMES GETS IN HER LUNGS) BUT HAD NOT BEEN IN THE HOSPITAL FOR A YEAR (A NEW RECORD)!!! SINCE I WORK 2ND SHIFT, I HAD TO RELY ON MY SON TO TAKE CARE OF THE SMALLEST ONE SO MY WIFE COULD BE WITH BAILEY!!! I WORRIED ALL EVENING ABOUT BAILEY AND MY WIFE AT THE HOSPITAL AND ABOUT THE KIDS AT HOME (A.J.'S A BIG BOY AND VERY RESPONSIBLE BUT STILL I WORRY)!!! THEN RIGHT OUT OF THE BLUE, IT'S LIKE GOD WAS SAYING "HAVE I EVER LET YOU DOWN???" I HAD TO APOLIGIZE TO GOD AND TOLD MYSELF TO HAVE ENOUGH FAITH TO WAIT UNTIL SUPPER BREAK TO CALL AGAIN TO CHECK ON THEM!!! WHEN I SENT MY SON A TEXT AT BREAK, THE RESPONSE CAME "BAILEY'S COMING BACK HOME!!! GOD IS SO GOOD TO ME AND MY FAMILY AND I GET SO MAD AT MYSELF FOR OVER-REACTING AND FORGETTING ALL THAT HE HAS DONE!!! I'M SO GLAD I'M NOT IN CHARGE!!! THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PRAYERS AND FELLOWSHIP!!!

DARE TO BE DIFFERENT

GOOD MORNIN ! SO LETS GO.AS I WAS GROWIN UP A VERY GOOD FRIEND ALL THROUGH SCHOOL AND I MEAN BEST FRIEND ,WELL HIS DAD WAS A VERY WELL KNOWN PASTOR .HE STUCK WITH THE NICKNAME "PK" PASTORS KID.BUT MUCH TO HIS DADS CONGRGATION DISSIPOINTMENT,,THAT DIDNT STOP MIKE FROM BEING THE MISCHIEVOUS KID.ME AND MIKE GOT INTO THE USUAL TROUBLE THAT KIDS GET INTO ,BUT NOTHIN BAD.I HEARD PEOPLE TELL MIKE ,"YOU SHOULD BE AN EXAMPLE OF YOU FATHER,BUT MIKE DIDNT WANT OT BE THAT EXAMPLE,HE JUST WANTED TO BE THE TIPACAL GROWIN UP YOUNG MAN,THOUGH ALL THOSE FUN TIMES THAT WE HAD ALL THROUGH SCHOOL SOMETIMES DOIN THINGS WE SHOULDNT ,MY FRIEND MIKE DID TURN OUT TO BE A PASTOR..LETS FACE IT,BEING AN EXAMPLE IS OFTEN ABOUT BEING DIFFERENT.BUT MOST OF US DOESNT WANT THE LABLE OF BEING DIFFERENT.WE WANT OTHERS TO LIKE US,AND THE SAFEST WAY IS TO BLEND IN .BUT FOLLOWING CHRIST HAS NEVER BEEN ABOUT BLENDING IN.FOLLOWING HIM MEANS TO BE LIKE HIM,TO RESPOND TO LIFE AND RELATE TO PEOPLE AS HE DID.ITS A LITTLE RISKY AND UNCOMFORTABLE TO BE DIFFERENT .{CORINTHIANS 5 : 2O NOW THEN ,WE ARE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST .}.BUT THATS WHAT BEING AN AMBASSORDOR FOR CHRIST IS ALL ABOUT--BRINGING THE WONDERFUL DIFFERENCE OF YOUR KING TO BEAR ON THE TERRITORY YOUVE BEEN ASSIGNED :YOUR HOME,YOUR OFFICE,YOUR FRIENDSHIPS.REPRESSENTING THE KING IS NOT JUST OUR CALLING;ITS A GREAT HONOR.DARE TO BE DIFFERENT ---FOR THE FATHERS SAKE. IN RETORSPECT,I CAN SEE HOW THE ANTICS OF A PASTORS KID REFLECTED POORLY ON MIKES DAD.ITS MOTAVATING TO REMEMBER THAT OURNONJESUS ATTITUDES AND ACTIONS ALSO REFLECT POORLY ON OUR KING JESUS...MAKE A DIFFERENCE BY DARING TO BE DIFFERENT. HOW EVER WE ARE .WE ALL ARE DIFFERENT ,DIFFERENT WANTS ,ATTITUDES ,PERSONALITYS,HOBBIES,ECT,ECT, BUT NO MATTER HOW EVER WE ARE GOD LOVES US ,AND CARES ABOUT US ,AND HAS A PLAN FOR US ,,,ALL BECAUSE HE LOVES US AND WANTS THE BEST IN OUR LIVES .ASK HIM INTO YOUR LIFE TODAY.WE LOVE YAS ,GOD LOVES YAS ,HAVE A BLESSED DAY,YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,,,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM,,,RON, ANOTHER PRAYER ANSWERED FOR US ,HEY PREACHER,AS FOR YOUR WORRYING,WE ALL DO AND GOD KNOWS THAT,HE SAYS DONT WORRY OR FRET, BUT AS A CHRISTIAN AND LOVING OUR LOVED ONES WITH THE LOVE OF CHRIST,WE CANT HELP BUT WORRY, AS I WORRY MYSELF.GOD KNOWS WE HAVE FAITH,THE FAITH WE HAVE IN HIM OVERRIDES OUR WORRY THATS WHY GOD GIVES US HIS SHOULDER TO LEAN ON ...SO HEY PREACHER DONT WORRY ABOUT WORRIEIN ,, TO ALL A PRAYER SENT FOR YOUS ...

BEST IN SHOW!

HI TO EVERYONE!ITS A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.MAN HAVE WE HAD A WEIRED WINTER .IM SEEIN LOTS OF DUCKS AND GEESE ,FLYIN BACK NORTH ALREADY THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF THEM ,THE FIELD BEHIND THE HOUSE HAS ABOUT 5 OR 6 THOUSAND SPECKEL BELLYS SITIN THERE ...LETS GO ! WITH TODAYS MESSAGE "BEST IN SHOW." WHEN I GO TO A HUNT SOMEWHERE I ALWAYS LIKE WATCHIN THE DOG SHOWS ,THE OWNERS TROT BESIDE THE DOGS AROUND THE RING SHOWIN OFF THERE CANINES BEAUTY.THE DOGS HAVE BEEN TRAINED TO STAND CONFIDENTLY WITH CHINS LIFTED HIGH,THE SHINY COATS BRUSHED ,AND STYLED.TO ME THEY ALL LOOK LIKE WINNERS.BUT I WONDER SOMETIMES WHEN THERE AUDIENCE IS GONE,AND THERE LAYIN AT HOME IN THERE KENNELS ,IM SURE THEY RELAX AND GET THERE SLEEK LOOKIN COAT DURITY AND MATED AND LOOK LIKE EVERYOTHER MUTT DOES.. THERE DOG BREATH START SMELLIN FOUL? NOW TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT ,NOW MORE IMPORTANT ,WHAT ARE WE REALLY LIKE WHEN NO ONES AROUND AND WATCHING? IN MATTHEW 23 :2-7 ,JESUS REBUKED THOSE WHO WERE INTERESTED IN HOW THEY LOOKED IN PUBLIC RATHER THAN HOW THEY WERE SEEN BY GOD.HE WANTS US TO BE OBEDIENT,FAITHFUL,,AND COMMITED TO HIM---EVEN WHEN NO BODY ELSE SEES.THE PHARISEES FOCUSED ON THE WAY THEY WERE PRECEIVED BY OTHER PEOPLE.GODS FOCUS IS ON WHAT HE SEES ON THE INSIDE.HIS DESIRE IS FOR YOU TO LOOK LIKE HIS SON.WERE NOT IN A COMPATION WITH OTHER CHRISTIANS.GOD WILL NEVER ASK US TO COMPETE FOR "BEST IN SHOW" LIVING FOR GODS APPROVAL IS BETTER THAN LIVING FOR MANS APPLAUSE.GOD MEASURES US BY THE PERFECT STANDARD OF HIS SON AND IN LOVE,HE PROVIDES THE RIGHTEOUSNESS WE NEED SO THAT WE CAN BE BLAMELESS BEFORE HIM.{---1 SAMUEL 16: 7 MAN LOOKS AT THE OUTWARD APPERANCE,BUT THE LORD LOOKS AT THE HEART.} IF A PERSON IS JUST TRYIN TO PUT ON A SHOW ,THEY WILL NEVER MAKE IT TO HEAVEN,WE HAVE TO TRUST,AND BELIEVE IN GOD WITH ALL OUR HEARTS AND ALL HE WANTS US TO DO FOR ALL THE GOOD BLESSINGS THAT HE GIVES US IS {TELL OTHERS ABOUT HIM}...GOD LOVES YAS , WE LOVE YAS . HAVE A BLESSED DAY,YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM ,,,RON.....NEED PRAYER? ALL YA GOTA DO IS ASK ...YA KNOW IF YA THINK ABOUT ALL THE PRAYERS THAT ARE SENT TO GOD EACHDAY ,HE IS A VERY BUSY GOD ,BUT ONE THING FOR SURE HE HAS TIME AND TAKES THE TIME TO LISTEN TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US THAT ASKS PRAYERS IN HIS NAME ...SEE YAS TOMORROW,RON
